Any UAV(s) observed at or near the Porter County Fairgrounds will be reported to local law enforcement and the Federal Aviation Administration.

CHILD SAFETY

For the safety of your young children please stop by Gate 1 upon entrance to the fair and get a child safety wristband. These wristbands will help us identify any child who gets separated from their parents or guardians.

If a parent and child get separated, go to Gate 1, which is the main entrance to the fairgrounds or locate any Firefighter, EMS, or Police official to report the separation. Please provide clothing, height, weight, age, and last known area they were at.

Lost children will be brought to the Fire, Police and EMS command center located just inside Gate 1 attached to the Expo Center on the north side until we can contact the parent or guardian and reunite parties.

INJURY

If you or someone else has an injury, stop any Firefighter, EMS, or Police official as soon as possible, or come to the Fire/EMS/Police Command Center located at the Main Gate. If nothing else, call 911 and help will arrive soon.

Please, while you are the fair, stop by and see us at the Fire Safety House located at the Main Gate for free handouts on safety.
